Rebecca Zimmerman keeps busy with her White Bear Soap Company.
What started out as Rebecca Zimmerman’s hobby 27 years ago has transformed into a bustling business called White Bear Soap Company. “Soap was something that clicked with me,” Zimmerman says.
Her products are especially hydrating for dry skin because they contain glycerin—a by-product in the soap-making process that attracts moisture to the skin. Making 300 soap bars per week in her kitchen, Zimmerman offers over 50 varieties of hand, body and face soaps.
This winter, to help with dry skin, Zimmerman recommends her line of oatmeal soaps, including aloe oatmeal, almond oatmeal and the soap-maker’s favorite, lavender oatmeal.
